And if you have a big trip coming up, you're going to want to get that settled ASAP. Don't worry, if you're still looking for the perfect summer dress, Amazon shoppers have you covered, since they've found a stunning maxi that's currently on sale for just $40. The Prettygarden Sleeveless Smocked Maxi Dress is made from lightweight, breezy polyester that you can easily dress up or down, whether you're going out to dinner on vacation or attending a baby shower back at home. It features adjustable spaghetti straps that will let you find a comfortable, custom fit. Plus, the square neckline is universally flattering, while the stretchy, shirred bodice allows for comfort and will accommodate a wide range of bust sizes. The dress also has tiered details on the skirt that allow for movement and the maxi length hits right at the ankle. It comes in sizes small to XL. You can shop the stunning dress in 12 colors, including everything from basic black and dark blue to bold emerald green and lavender. And although the dress is just $40 right now, it looks far more expensive than it is, and shoppers confirm its high quality feel. In fact, it looks surprisingly similar to a few far more pricey frocks, including this printed option from Reformation that retails for $218 and this Everlane pick that goes for $98.
